From @THR‘s #Tenet review: “Altogether, it makes for a chilly, cerebral film — easy to admire, especially since it’s so rich in audacity and originality, but almost impossible to love, lacking as it is in a certain humanity.” https://t.co/5eic2C0Vcr

I tried to write my TENET review as a palindrome, but got as far as “Good, it’s good” before realising I’d already failed. Big, beefy, convoluted spectacle, wider than it is deep, suit porn levels off the charts: I had fun. https://t.co/rnNpic1eGY

Tenet is a thrilling addition to the Christopher Nolan canon, but is slightly held back by a sense of over-familiarity.

TENET is Christopher Nolan’s weirdest & most confusing film yet. What I mean to say is that I really dug it, it made me feel like a tiny baby floating in an endless universe https://t.co/dKfN4iFNd9

There comes a time where you watch a film that just nails every part of the characterisation, story, casting & soundtrack. And you’re in utter awe even though you shouldn’t be, because Christopher Nolan has never disappointed.

TENET is an insane cinematic experience. pic.twitter.com/PYKfLNmJQE

#TENET

I loved it. It’s very timely. It has big ideas, although it is perhaps guilty of being a bit abstract in places.

Elizabeth DeBicki is fantastic. It does things that I’ve never seen on-screen before. It’s stunning.

I can’t wait to see it again.https://t.co/4gZP2DMwtc

The highly-anticipated mystery project will first open in 70 countries including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, Russia, Spain and the U.K. on August 26, with some territories still yet to receive a release date, while select US cities will see the film open on September 3 ahead of the Labor Day weekend.

Tenet will be an international espionage thriller filmed across seven countries. John David Washington (BlacKkKlansman) stars, with a supporting cast that includes Robert Pattinson (Good Time), Elizabeth Debicki (Widows), Dimple Kapadia (Fugly), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Avengers: Age of Ultron), Michael Caine (The Dark Knight Rises) and Kenneth Branagh (Dunkirk).

The director first made an impact in 2001 with his indie film Memento. His next film, Insomnia, was also a modest hit. but it wasn’t until Batman Begins hit theaters in 2005 that Nolan became a box office force in his own right. The Prestige was Nolan’s last movie to gross under $200 million worldwide. His other films include The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises, Inception, Interstellar, and Dunkirk.
